Have just been looking at the photo's of some of your children, they are all gorgeous!
I just wondered if anyone would like to share what special needs there child has.
Yes, I am nosey!!!!
Just thought it would be nice to know what others have been through and some may find that their child has similar illnesses or needs, especially any new people.
I know that some of you already know one another well.
Apologies if this has been done before?
I shall start!!!............
My Daughter Ellie (a twin) aged 3 had Phneumococcal meningitis when she was 8 months old.
She was critically ill and had to have two Operations on her brain.
She went onto suffer brain damage to the right hand side of her brain, Hydrocephalus and then 8 months later was also diagnosed with a serious form of Epilepsy (Infantile Spasms)
We were told she was be severely brain damaged and disabled, but she is doing really well and is walking, running and stringing up to 5 words (we just need her to sleep now!!!!!!!)
